On January 29, the 19th year of the country, the 30th day of the lunar month, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, which is commonly known as "great".

Probably because the Kuomintang-controlled "Legislative Yuan" formally passed a resolution a few days before Chinese New Year's Eve, declaring the Nationalist Government the sole legitimate government of the Republic of China. The streets of Wuhan are also much more prosperous and lively than they were during the Spring Festival last year, with lanterns hanging on several major streets and colored stripes wrapping around trees. The bleak city in winter is just decorated with a rich and prosperous atmosphere.

Luo Yaoguo stood on the top of Hanyang Turtle Mountain with his hands in his hands, looking at the capital that had been carefully dressed. Well, right now, the city of Wuhan is theoretically already the capital of the Republic of China. Moreover, the United Kingdom, the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Poland and other European and American powers have also recognized it in the first place. Only the embassies of the USSR and Japan remained in Dongjiaomin Lane in Beijing. But...... The division of the country is already an indisputable fact, and this split situation has never appeared in history, it is completely the result of Luo Yaoguo's chaotic change of history

However, in history, since the end of 1931, there has also been a confrontation between the Chinese Soviet Republic and the Republic of China. Moreover, it is the whole of China's political life, and this is the conclusion that Comrade Wang Ming made in another time and space. And here it is almost the same, there are similar words on the manuscript of Mao ZD's New Year speech...... It was leaked by a certain Kuomintang leftist bigwig who served in the central government in Beijing, and Luo Yaoguo was naturally the first. This is almost a declaration of war, but is it true that this history will go down which fork in the road?

Luo Yaoguo sighed softly, turned around, and saw Zeng Qi hugging the mink fur, standing aside with his hands in his hands, looking up at the pale gray sky above his head. The placket is windy, dignified, and really has the appearance of a national warrior. A round face that is a little ugly is dark, and his brows are frowned, and at first glance he is worried about the country and the people. Well, at the moment, all politicians except for the two parties are this PE. Some individuals, such as Duan Qirui, Wu Peifu, and others, who had taken refuge in Shanghai, even published articles in newspapers every now and then, bitterly advising the north and the south to endure each other and seek the country, and not to repeatedly embark on the road of waging a civil war.

Seeing Luo Yaoguo turn around, Zeng Qi also put away the shelf that worried about the country and the people, and immediately changed to a smile and a groaning appearance, nodded lightly Brother Fuwen, sighed for the New Year? Are you also starting to worry about the country and the people? ”

Is it also beginning to worry about the country and the people? Luo Yaoguo glanced at the so-called staff member and nodded helplessly. Although at the moment, the Kuomintang and the Central G may not have the idea of going to war immediately. However, the situation is becoming more and more tense, and it can be said that it is already tense. Six divisions of the Kuomintang have already begun mobilization, and it is expected that they will reach full strength within half a month. In addition, two aviation divisions were deployed to airfields along the Yellow River. China G has also begun to prepare for war now, and the latest information obtained, the Suiyuan Production and Construction Corps has now put down its hoe. Instead of plowing the dry yellow earth, he took up arms again and prepared for war.

"Now we and China G don't want to fight, but we have to put on a posture of wanting to fight to intimidate each other. I'm worried...... If you don't get the gun off, a big war will break out" Luo Yaoguo paced slowly, his brows furrowed more and more tightly Brother Han, you and Zhong G's current family Zhou E are old acquaintances. Can you take a trip to Beijing for me? ”

Listening to Luo Yao's heavy Chinese tone, Zeng Qi also lowered his face, sighed Brother Fuwen didn't want to fight, others may not want to fight It's not that I said you, on this issue, you Luo Fuwen is a little wishful thinking. ”

"Oh?" Luo Yaoguo was stunned when he heard this, stopped and looked up at Zeng Qi. Zeng Qi's face turned slightly pale, and he said eloquently that the confrontation between the north and the south in China today is actually a unified south against a divided north. Whether China and G are fighting for the world or retreating to defend themselves, the current territory is not enough, they need to at least unify the north of the Yellow River, and then unite with the Northeast Army, so that it is possible to contend with the Kuomintang. If the current situation is maintained...... It's just waiting for death, and with Zhong G Zhou E and Mao ZD, their talents may probably sit back and wait to die? ”

Luo Yaoguo took a deep breath, his brows tightened more and more. The current situation in China G is indeed a bit sinister. Although it is not many times stronger than another time and space. However, compared to the national government, which is already eligible to join the Treaty on the Limitation of Naval Armaments...... Their strength is really insignificant. Even if the Baotou heavy industry base is built, it will only be 200,000 tons of steel. By that time, there would be almost five million tons of steel in South China

Zeng Qi smiled coldly, and began to break his fingers again, and analyzed: Now most of the territory north of the Yellow River in Guannei is already the world of China G. Only most of Shanxi was in the hands of Yan Xishan, and northern Henan was under the control of the Kuomintang. With the strength that China G now has, it is extremely irrational to fight northern Henan and start a war with the Kuomintang. Therefore, their next target must be Shanxi, and only by defeating Shanxi, can their Zhili, Suiyuan, and northern Shaanxi be connected, and if they destroy Wang Zhongyi's Seventh Route Army...... China G can be regarded as invincible. Therefore, the battle of Shanxi is inevitable, but it will break out at some point. ”

Luo Yaoguo nodded, obviously agreeing with Zeng Qi's opinion. Zhong G's idea of Shanxi has been coming for a long time, as early as the era of the Northwest New Army, Mao ZD has been thinking about attacking Shanxi. Moreover, in the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, he also attacked Shanxi on a large scale, only to end hastily in the later Middle East Road War.

"Brother Mu Han, if you have an idea, just say it." Luo Yaoguo saw Zeng Qi looking like he wanted to talk and stopped, it was already his winter, it was not good to cat at home, and he came to climb the mountain to play together, he must have something to say.

Zeng Qi glanced back at the guards who were following from afar, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice, Brother Fuwen, do you think Hu Hanmin, Chiang Kai-shek, and Xu Chongzhi will watch the three of them take Shanxi and be indifferent? If Yan Xishan could not hold on, he would ask the Kuomintang Central Committee for help...... In the 'Big Guy Meeting', your uncle and nephew only have two votes, and now it is impossible to stop the battle of Shanxi, but there is still hope for a full-scale civil war to be stopped. The way is to arm the Jin army as soon as possible before the attack of the Central G, and at the same time help them store food and ammunition and build city fortifications. ”

Luo Yaoguo shook his head, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth, the Jin army's combat effectiveness was not successful, and they couldn't hold it. Delay a little bit at most......"

Zeng Qi sneered and said It is enough to delay for a while, and the battle between China and G to attack Jin is a quick decision. Not to mention that the Kuomintang is eyeing the south, just saying that the current situation of food and salary shortage in China and G will not be able to sustain a long-term war. If Yan Laoxi can drag on for a few months, there will definitely be a turnaround, and it is a big deal to let Zhang Hanqing come forward to mediate when the time comes. It can make Yan Laoxi breathe for a while longer. If Lao Yan can survive for a long time, our national government will naturally be able to sit back and relax. ”

……

If it is said that in this dispute between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and the turmoil caused by the dispute between the central government in the north and the south, the most innocent people involved are none other than Yan Xishan, the rich man of Shanxi. If Lao Yan in another time and space still has the side of a reactionary warlord, then in this time and space, the current Yan Xishan is purely a harmless old white rabbit Yan Lao White Rabbit has been a warlord with his tail between his tail over the years, and he has nodded and accompanied GCD, Kuomintang, and Feng Zhang. Internally, it is to wholeheartedly engage in people's livelihood, build hometown, and benefit Sangzi. It seems that I am a little afraid that the people's life is too bitter and will be bewitched by GCD, right? No small number of words

It's just like gritting his teeth and pretending to be pure, and he just survived until 1930 AD. The warlord chair under Yan Laoxi's ass looks like it was either obediently handed over to the Kuomintang, or it was taken to GCD by GCD

Things have come to this point, but Yan Xishan is still unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history. Neither the "Minister of Energy" in Wuhan nor the "Vice Chairman of the Political Consultative Industry Association" in Beijing is what Yan Laoxi wants. A generation of heroes who have tasted the taste of dominating one side will never admit defeat until the last moment.

It's a pity that Shanxi is too small, and the Jin army is too weak to have the help of foreign aid. It is impossible to survive this turmoil until the day when the troubled times end

The sound of footsteps outside the door sounded softly, Yan Xishan put down the documents in his hand, stood up and walked to the door of the study and waited. I saw the secretary push open the door. Zhao Daiwen, the general staff of the Jin army, and Yang Yongtai, the special envoy of the southern national government, walked in side by side.

"Changqing came from afar, Yan was busy with official business and couldn't welcome him, disrespectful, disrespectful." Yan Xishan arched his hand and compensated Yang Yongtai with a smile on his face.

Yang Yongtai laughed, waved his hand, where did the words come from, it was my sudden visit that disturbed General Baichuan's meal, and it was me who should pay for it. ”

Yan Xishan smiled bitterly and shook his head, Yan is now an ant on a hot pot, where do you have the heart to eat a big meal? After speaking, he let out another long sigh, waved his hand and motioned for Yang Yongtai to sit down on a Taishi chair, and then instructed the secretary to bring the high-grade green tea with a fragrant fragrance.

"Yes, Brother Changqing, now Zhong G has been sharpening his knives there, although it seems to be aimed at the south on the surface. But in fact, he wants to slaughter us Shanxi people" Zhao Daiwen on the side took Yan Xishan's words with a bitter face, and we are the general of Baichuan who has been supervising Jin for eighteen years, what is the current situation in Shanxi? Who doesn't say it's a model province? Railways, highways, education, and people's livelihood, which one is not among the best in China today? But you don't want to let us Shanxi be safe and stable in this troubled world? ”

Hearing Zhao Daiwen's complaining words, Yang Yongtai just smiled, a calm and generous faction said this badly, in the next time he came to Taiyuan, he did not want to invite General Baichuan to serve in Wuhan. ”

When Yan Xishan heard that he didn't need to go to Wuhan, he jumped up all of a sudden, his face was full of excitement, and Changqing meant that the national government wanted to appoint him as the chairman of Shanxi Province? Jin Jun doesn't need to adapt ......" Speaking of which, Yan Xishan's face sank again, shook his head, and sighed, I'm afraid there is no such good thing, right? No less words"

"Jiegong wants to arrange it like this, but the current Kuomintang is not something that Jiegong can count if he says it. However, Jiegong is still willing to help Shanxi through the difficulties within the scope of his ability. ”

Yang Yongtai took a bite at this time, as if everything was arranged by Chiang Kai-shek. In fact, that was the decision of the presidium at noon today.

"Getting through this?" Yan Xishan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked up at Yang Yongtai...... Is the Kuomintang ready to send troops to Shanxi? ”

Yang Yongtai smiled deeply, and glanced at Yan Xishan meaningfully If our National ** Army wants to send three divisions to Shanxi, General Baichuan welcomes it, don't you skip the word.

Yan Xishan's face suddenly changed greatly, and he jumped up again. Yang Yongtai laughed and waved his hand, General Baichuan should not worry, our national government has no ambitions for Shanxi Province, and will not send troops. We are only going to provide Shanxi with a batch of supplies, mainly grain. In addition, it is also prepared to give Shanxi a military subsidy of 10 million legal currency, so that the Jin army can expand its scale. I think such a good thing, General Baichuan will not refuse, right? No less words"

Is this a good thing? It looks like GCD is really coming to attack Shanxi. Yan Xishan secretly speculated in his heart.

Although at present, China G is shouting and shouting at the south, but people who know a little about military affairs know it. The military strength of the Central G, if it is in the base area, relying on the support of the people after the land reform, can still fight with the Kuomintang. But if you go to the territory of the national government, it is purely to deliver food to your door. They wouldn't do that stupid thing.

Therefore, China and G must have another goal in the current armament war, and this goal is Shanxi.

Shanxi is surrounded by the territory of China G on three sides, and it is currently the richest province in the north. The infrastructure is complete, the resources are abundant, and the industrial and mining industries have a certain foundation, and the Jin merchants have a lot of savings in their pockets, all of which are urgently needed for the development of heavy industry in China and G. Moreover, after taking Shanxi, the strategic maneuver space of China and G will also be greatly increased. It will not be so easy for the Kuomintang to take them again......

What is even more rare is that the combat effectiveness of the Jin army in Shanxi is extremely weak. In the middle of the year, when G millet plus rifles, they could be pressed to fight. At present, it is good to have a certain number of artillery pieces and a certain heavy industry base, and it must be easy to take Shanxi.

Moreover, the Kuomintang-ruled areas were now in the midst of the so-called Great Depression, and the Nationalist government gritted its teeth and put forward an ambitious plan for the development of heavy industry. Obviously, in the coming period, the Kuomintang is not very willing to have a life-and-death battle with China and G.

Therefore, the battle of Shanxi is already imminent

Yang Yongtai seemed to read his mind and looked at him coldly. Mockingly, General Baichuan, the next year may be the life and death of the Jin army. The Nationalist Government will now seize every opportunity to arm the Jin army. But in the end, whether you can resist it depends on your determination, if you can't stand it, you have to invite the national ** army to come in, but it is easy to invite God, and it is difficult to send God. So, please don't be polite, and don't hesitate to speak if necessary. Jiegong will definitely fight for you at the presidium meeting. ”

……

The same festival, but two different minds.

In Beijing, it is also the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve of the 19th year of the Republic of China. In Zhongnanhai Huairen Hall, dozens of tables of banquets were set up lively, and the eight treasures were full at four o'clock, and a banquet was also full of flowers. Although the middle G has begun to work hard, the annual Spring Festival still has to be celebrated. What's more, there are also various factions of democrats and friends in Beijing?

In the barracks, in schools, on construction sites, in factories and mines, in offices everywhere. Today, too, a big dinner was served. Although it is not as good as the grade in Zhongnanhai, there is always wine and meat.

The bigwigs of China and G and the leaders of the democratic parties in Beijing walked into the banquet hall of Huairentang with humility and self-determination, and Zhou Elai, Mao ZD, Li Lsan, Xiang Ying, Wang Ming, Zhang Wtian, Zhu D, Liu Qi, Zhang Guotao, Song Qingling, Deng Yanda, Li Jishen, and Feng Yuxiang ...... Even Liu Yufen, Han Fuqu, Sun Lianzhong, and Feng Zhi'an, comrades who have made mistakes but sincerely repented, also have a place. Oh, and the Soviet ambassador Zirnykh, the general adviser Mif, the military adviser Chuikov, the Japanese minister Yoshizawa Kenkichi and other friendly people also accepted the invitation. In addition, Mao Renfeng of the North-South Exchange Foundation, Pan Fu, representative of the Northeast Army in Beijing, and Ma Hongbin, representative of the Youth Army in Beijing, were also invited to attend the banquet.

As for the seats that people should sit, they have been arranged a long time ago. Zhou Elai accompanied one table among the Kuomintang leftist bigwigs, Mao ZD, Liu Qi and the ministers of the central government at one table, Wang Ming and Zhang Wtian accompanied the Soviet ambassadors and advisers at one table, Xiang Ying, Zhu Dnaturally and the senior generals of the Eighth Route Army stationed in Beijing at one table, Zhang Guotao and Mao Renfeng, Pan Fu, Ma Hongbin, Japanese Minister Fang Ze Kenji and others also gathered at one table. Well, by the way, Zhang Guotao was sent by Zhou Elai to be the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the chairman of the North-South Exchange Association, which is quite a big official.

After taking the seat, everyone looked at each other and felt that compared with last year's Spring Festival, it was really like a world away. At that time, the president was still Sun Yat-sen, and China was still a unified country. The world's economy is also thriving. Now, China G is already in charge of the city of Beijing, and Sun Yat-sen has been dead for almost a year. And the country has been divided between the north and the south, and is on the verge of civil war. The world's economy is even more depressed.

No one, how long can peace in China be maintained after this big meal? Will there be a large-scale civil war that will ruin the fortunes of the country? And in the imminent outbreak of war, what kind of changes will take place in the pattern of interests of various factions?
